EuroCheapo review print this page

Barnacles Temple Bar House, as its name implies, is at the epicenter of turbocharged Temple Bar. The dormitory, rising from narrow Temple Lane, is a multi-story building with a quaint exterior.

Weekends at Barnacles are noisy, with hen and stag parties galore. During the week, when backpackers make the most typical guests, things quiet down a bit. Recognizing the hectic nature of the ‘hood, Barnacles Temple Bar House maintains tight and unyielding security (but happily avoids a curfew policy), and its helpful staff is yet another plus.

Inside, the hotel is a labyrinth, with narrow hallways and lounge spaces opening up seemingly out of the blue. The rooms themselves are simple and often very compact, some with skylights and others with views of the maze of alleys below. While these rooms will not be winning design awards anytime soon, yellow walls and light furniture keep things bright. We don't need to spend too much time on Barnacles’ unfortunate curtains, except to ask: how important are curtains in a hotel with rates this reasonable, located at the absolute center of Dublin?

About the Barnacles Temple Bar House neighborhood

Bars, crowds, drinks, Irish music, bars, beer, pubs, drinks, Irish music, more people, more pubs. This is the place where tourists party in Dublin. Young and loud, Temple Bar is a raging place. Just south of the River Liffey and just west of the road leading to O’Connell Street, the Temple Bar area is smack-dab in the center of the action. Trinity College is just east of the expansive bar scene.
